M5 differences.

[Barney Paull-Edwards]

Saga continues. M5 brakes are exactly the same diameter as 535/525 but twice as thick, could prove it with photo`s if I was clever enough. It all fits but carrier bolts are a different thread,found 4 in stainless boat bin,all fitted but Textar pads faded in twenty miles,now fitted Jurid M5 pads, heavy pedal but no fade and progressive pedal.Assume M5 master cylnder is different bore ,hence heavier pedal? Old M5`s in scrap yards are about and all suspension will fit, should have got roll bars as with more rubber car, car rolls more but grips like **** to a blanket,the Ring beckons! Thanks to all on Forum, the best help about. Volvo (old) forum is like watching paint dry!

you know, Kennedy looked good in the back of a 4 seat convertible.

Yeah but that didn't last too long
